Fred | no longer Fred the Red but now a Turkish delight

[ThanksBoss26]

That leaves number 17 to Höylund... I took a chance on him getting that number in odds or evens! Make it happen

Think it’s a cert that one.

 

[croadyman]

That might be the best we get.

Well let's see if Fulham are willing to match it

 

[AltiUn]

Not the worst fee, would still be seeing if we could squeeze out an extra £2m.

 

[Plastic Evra]

That's a huge fee for Fener (though I suspect there's a lot of add ons in that sum) but they have had decent sales this year.

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

Plenty of PL clubs could use a Fred.

 

[Onerealunited]

This could possibly happen.

There is a transfer war between Fenerbahce and Galatasaray. Since May Fener worked on Zaha and then suddenly out of nowhere Galatasaray bought him… then Fener focused all its resources on signing Tete and hi is now about to sign with Galatasaray.

On the other hand, Galatasaray has worked on the Fred transfer for some time and he is to cover a position they really need. Fener would with this transfer try to give something back to Galatasaray

In terms of transfer fee, €15m is a lot of money for a Turkish club but Fenerbahce has sold players for significant amounts this summer so they should have enough cash…

 

[Pronewbie]

Plenty of PL clubs could use a Fred.

Not when they've constantly been targeting him as our weak link.

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

Not when they've constantly been targeting him as our weak link.

His lack of composure in possession isn't that glaring in all but the top 6 clubs.

 

[acnumber9]

Not according to those same PL clubs it would seem.

 

[Trex]

Does this means we get Amrabat now

 

[JJ12]

Not according to those same PL clubs it would seem.

What an absolute myth

 

[cyberman]

Plenty of PL clubs could use a Fred.

I agree.
Too many clubs are happy with just comfortably staying in the league and a lot aren’t incentives to try and get further up the league.
Fred would be unreal in a lot of sides who play compact and need a workhouse beside their sitting midfielder

 

[croadyman]

Does this means we get Amrabat now

Yeah you would think so

 

[Trex]

Yeah you would think so

Adiós Fred then!

 

[2 man midfield]

I thought £15m would’ve been a fair price, but euros is close enough.

 

[Fortitude]

Plenty of PL clubs could use a Fred.

He’s 30 and his biggest strengths are his engine and doggedness; considering his wage and his age, it’s a big gamble to get him in on the 4yr+ contract he’d be seeking.

 

[Adamsk7]

As hoping for £15m but £13m ain’t that bad considering his age and contract length.

£30m Maguire
£15m Elanga
£15m Fred
£4m Telles

If we can offload McTominay, Henderson and Donny and see at least £60-70m back for those three that’s an absolutely incredible window buying and selling. The best we’ve had for years

 

[Superunknown]

I thought £15m would’ve been a fair price, but euros is close enough.

Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing. If we could get a little bit more, that would be great. It's a good deal for them, tbh.

Henderson looks the unlikely one

 

[JJ12]

Henderson looks the unlikely one

And Donny looks like a loan

 

[Valencia's Left Foot]

Fred has been an enigma at United, many games where he can't seem to pass but with an extremely high ceiling on his day and NEVER stops trying for the team. I love the passion he shows and whatever happens to him, wish him well in the future. I don't get the fans who hate on him.

Totally agree, Fred has served this club well.

 

[croadyman]

And Donny looks like a loan

Yep so at best maybe £40m from McTominay

 

[AjaxCunian]

It is 15m euro's not pounds.

 

[Erics_Collar]

It's not often outgoings would overshadow the new arrivals at any club when reviewing their transfer activity, but bloody hell.

To get actual real, physical, human money for the likes of Maguire, Elanga, Fred, Donny etc. is sensational stuff.

We won't for Donny but done very well with rest

 

[Marcus]

Am loving our transfer dealings.

 

[Alemar]

We will probably try to squeeze 17m euro out of them. But it’s already close to a figure that will be accepted

 

[Devil You Know]

"Package"

Does this mean it includes wages?

 

[the_cliff]

"Package"

I doubt it. Just the fee to United and add ons.

 

[acnumber9]

What an absolute myth

Is it? They don’t seem to be knocking down our door for a player who has blatantly been available all summer

 

[SalfordRed18]

Premier clubs could do with Fred, and yet west ham are looking to spend £30mil plus on McTominey when they could have Fred at the fraction of the price...

 

[the_cliff]

Turkish bidding war. Good news for us.

 

[Ali Dia]

I can imagine he’ll be a total cult hero in Turkey if he indeed goes there. They’ll love a bit of Fred being everywhere. Of all the players up for sale he’s the last one I’d personally let go but a smart club that is trying to slowly bring the age and wages of the squad down wouldn’t be renewing him on a long deal or even at all so this makes sense.

 

[crossy1686]

Does this means we get Amrabat now

Think so, we need to sell a midfielder or two to make it happen.

 

[pascell]

Galatasaray now back in for Fred. Hopefully Fulham come in also, get that money upped.

 

[JoeyJoJoJrShabadoo]

I think he's worth more but its obvious the manager doesn't fancy him at all. €15m seems low but final year, 30 year old, might be best we can get

 

[Red00012]

McTominay isn’t going anywhere

 

[BarstoolProphet]

Looks like Romano has had a direct line to Fred's camp all summer. He was saying Fred was 100% leaving in June so I trust his updates here.

 

[red.knight]

McTominay isn’t going anywhere

I suspect Westham will come back for him if/when they sell Paqueta to City.
